So awkward when you meet kindly older ones who, at this point in their life, it wouldn't be that productive for them to leave ...exception to that being of course informing them about the ARC , as you did, cos the kids safety trumps even their needs as lonely old folk.
We have to keep telling them though, cos when the crap hits the fan, and it WILL, they will all turn around and say " BUT WHY DID NOBODY TELL US ABOUT ALL THIS!!"
